Sewing and painting a yukata entirely by hand took forever! I had not worn this costume in many years (since 2007ish) but in 2012 I was able to improve it a bit, redo a few seams and gussy it up, since it now fit again after I had lost some weight. I redebuted it at the Cosplay Fashion show that Zenkaikon 2012 put on at Sakura Sunday in Philadelphia, PA!
